Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to riders who have moved beyond a beginner bike and want a naked sportbike with a lively, high-revving inline-four character.
PurposeDesigned as an unfaired streetfighter for spirited road riding and daily use rather than outright track dominance or long-distance touring.
Rider FitA moderate seat height and manageable dry weight around 183 kg make it accessible to most adult riders of average build and fitness.
CharacterOffers a classic naked-bike feel with a smooth, revvy inline-four engine, sharp handling, and an upright, engaging riding stance.
Not Ideal ForNot a good match for riders seeking off-road capability, heavy touring comfort, or the outright top-end power of a fully faired supersport.

2007 Honda 599 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 790mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2007 Honda 599, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
